Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) family members that trigger passagethrough the cell cycle are being considered as attractive therapeutictargets, especially for cancer. CDK family members that control otherprocesses such as transcription and RNA processing have caught lessattention so far, although experimental evidence for their involvementin different pathological processes is emerging. The CDK-activatingkinase, or CAK complex, consists of CDK7, cyclin H, and MAT1. As part ofCAK, CDK7 phosphorylates other CDKs, an essential step for theiractivation. Therefore CDK7 is required for cell cycle progression, whichsuggests that CDK7 is a target for cancer therapy. As the kinase subunitof TFIIH, CDK7 participates in basal transcription by phosphorylatingthe carboxy-terminal domain of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II.As a general regulator of transcription, CDK7 is a therapeutic targetfor treatment of diseases like inflammation, virus replication such asHIV, EBV, and HCV, cancer and cardiac hypertrophy.

HIV-1 gene expression is regulated by a viral transactivator protein(Tat) which induces transcriptional elongation of HIV-1 long tandemrepeat. This induction requires hyperphosphorylation of the C-terminaldomain repeats of RNA polymerase II. To achieve saidhyperphosphorylation, Tat stimulates CTD kinases associated with generaltranscription factors of the promoter complex, specificallyTFIIH-associated CDK7. (Nekhai et al.; Biochem. J. (2002) 364, 649-657).Also the inventors of U.S. Pat. No. 615,968 describe that Tat binds toCDK7 and that this interaction increases the ability of CAK tophosphorylate CTD. The authors of U.S. Pat. No. 615,968 further disclosethat the transcriptional activation by Tat is dependent upon the kinaseactivity of CDK07. Additionally, Young Kyeung Kim and colleaguesconclude that the recruitment and activation of TFIIH represents arate-limiting step for the emergence of HIV from latency (Young KyeungKim, EMBO I (2006) 25, 3596-3604).

Levels of CDK7 and CDK9, as well as other components of the kinasecomplexes, MAT-1/cyclin H are upregulated during Human cytomegalovirusinfection. In addition, there is an increase in the kinase activities ofCDK7 and CDK9 (Tamrakar et al., Journal of Virology, 2005, 79;15477-15493).

Many antiviral drugs target viral proteins. These have the disadvantagethat viruses often develop resistance against these drugs. Antiviraldrugs targeting cellular proteins essential for viral process, likeCDK7, could bypass this disadvantage. These drugs may further beeffective in treating several unrelated viruses and their effects shouldbe additive to traditional antiviral agents. Inhibitors of CDK7, whichhas its dual function of CDK-activating kinase and transcriptionregulation is very effective in the treatment of several viruses.

It is object of the present invention to provide compounds and/orpharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which can be used aspharmaceutically active agents, especially for prophylaxis and ortreatment of cell proliferative diseases, inflammatory diseases,immunological diseases, cardiovascular diseases and infectious diseases,as well as compositions comprising at least one of those compoundsand/or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof as pharmaceuticallyactive ingredients.

If R¹¹ and R¹² are joined together, they form a ring system andespecially a four-membered, five-membered or a six-membered ring systemtogether with the atoms to which they are attached. Preferred ringsystems are five-membered cyclocarbamates, five-membered cyclic ureas,five-membered cyclic guanidines, six-membered cyclocarbamates,six-membered cyclic ureas, six-membered cyclic guanidines, pyrrolidones,pyridones, piperidinones, imidazoles, imidazolines, pyrrolines,imidazolidin-2-ones.

R³ together with R⁴ can form a carbocyclic or heterocyclic 4-, 5-, 6- or7-membered ring with the two carbon atoms of the benzo ring to which R³and R⁴ are attached and that 4-, 5-, 6- or 7-membered ring can be partlysaturated or unsaturated and can be substituted with 1 to 4 substituentsselected from Z¹, Z², Z³ and Z⁴. Z¹ and Z² if attached to the samecarbon atom can together represent ═O to form a carbonyl group with thecarbon atom to which Z¹ and Z² are attached, so that so a ring has onecarbonyl group and may comprise one or two further residues which arenot allowed to form a carbonyl group together.

Partly saturated as used herein means that the ring system additionallyformed by joining R³ with R⁴ when taken alone already bears one doublebond originated in the phenyl ring to which R³ and R⁴ are attached.Thus, since R³ and R⁴ are attached to a phenyl ring a double bondequivalent exists between the two carbonatoms that bear R³ and R⁴,respectively. Therefore, the person skilled in the art will understandthat the ring system formed when R³ and R⁴ are joined together can notbe a saturated ring system, but a partly saturated ring system when themoiety introduces at least one saturated atom or two subsequentsaturated bonds.

R¹¹, R¹², R¹³, R¹⁴ and R¹⁵ preferably represent independently of eachother —H, methyl, isopropyl and pyrrolidinyl.

As used herein linear C₁-C₈-alkyl refers to —CH₃, —C₂H₅, —C₃H₇, —C₄H₉,—C₅H₁₁, —C₆H₁₃, —C₇H₁₅, —C₈H₁₇, —CH₂-Ph, —CH₂—CH₂-Ph, wherein theseresidues can be substituted with 1 to 5 substituents selected from Z⁸,Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ and Z¹². However it is clear to a skilled person that theterm “can be substituted” refers to the replacement of a hydrogen atomby one of the substituents Z⁸, Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ or Z¹². Moreover it is clearto a skilled person that only these hydrogen atoms which are present inthe residue can be replaced by the substituents Z⁸, Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ andZ¹². Thus, since the methyl group has only three hydrogen atoms, onlythree hydrogen atoms can be replaced by three substituents selected fromZ⁸, Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ and Z¹². For the definitions used herein the alkylarylgroup —CH₂-Ph (benzyl group) and the —CH₂—CH₂-Ph group should fall underthe definition “linear C₁-C₈-alkyl”.

The term “substituted” as used herein further indicates that thesubstituted residue like “substituted linear C₁-C₈-alkyl” doesdefinitely have at least one substituent (at least one Z substituent)while the residue without the term “substituted” like “linearC₁-C₈-alkyl” can have at least one substituent. Consequently, if theterm “substituted” is not used in relation to a residue this does notindicate that this residue is unsubstituted.

Examples of preferred substituted linear C₁-C₈-alkyl residues are—CH₂—OH, —CH₂—O—CH₃, —CH₂—OCF₃, —CF₃, —CH₂Cl, —CH₂CH₂Cl, —CH₂CH₂—OCF₃,and —CH₂-Ph.

However it is clear to a skilled person thatthe term “can be substituted” refers to the replacement of a hydrogenatom by one of the substituents Z⁸, Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ or Z¹². The carbon atomnumber of C₁-C₈ refers only to the carbon atoms of the alkyl residue anddoes not include the carbon atoms of the substituents Z⁸ to Z¹².

Examples of preferred substituted branched C₁-C₈-alkyl or preferablybranched C₃-C₈-alkyl residues are —CH(CH₂Cl)₂, —CH(CH₃)—C₂H₄—OCF₃,—C(CH₃)₂—CF₃, —COCH₃(CH₃)₂—, —CHCH₃Cl, —CH₂—CHCH₃NH₂, —CClCH₃—C₂H₅,—C(CH₃)₂OH, —CClCH₃—C₃H₇, —CH₂—C(OH)(CH₃)—C₂H₅, —CH(CH₃)—CHCH₃Cl,—C(CH₃)₂—C₂H₄NH₂, —CH₂—C(CH₃)₂₀H, —CNH₂(C₂H₅)₂, —C₂H₄—COH(CH₃)₂,—C₃H₆—CON(CH₃)₂.

As defined above, the term “substituted” in “substituted branchedC₃-C₈-alkyl” indicated that definitely at least one substituent ispresent while the term “branched C₃-C₈-alkyl” only defines that thecarbon chain is branched but does not exclude further substituents.Consequently it is stated above that the “branched C₃-C₈-alkyl” residuescan be substituted with 1 to 5 substituents selected from Z⁸, Z⁹, Z¹⁰,Z¹¹ and Z¹². Thus, for instance, the “substituted branched C₃-C₈-alkyl”residues are a subgroup of the “branched C₃-C₈-alkyl” residues. The sameapplies to the other residues which are mentioned with the term“substituted” and without the term “substituted”.

As used herein, C₃-C₈-cycloalkyl refers to cyclo-C₃H₅, cyclo-C₄H₇,cyclo-C₅H₉, cyclo-C₆H₁₁, cyclo-C₇H₁₃, and cyclo-C₈H₁₅, wherein theseresidues can be substituted with 1 to 5 substituents selected from Z⁸,Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ and Z¹². However it is clear to a skilled person that theterm “can be substituted” refers to the replacement of a hydrogen atomby one of the substituents Z⁸, Z⁹, Z¹⁰, Z¹¹ or Z¹². The carbon atomnumber of C₃-C₈ refers only to the carbon atoms of the cycloalkylresidue and does not include the carbon atoms of the substituents Z⁸ toZ¹².

Therefore, thesynthetic approach according to schemes 3 and 4 enables the synthesis ofany of the pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazines disclosed in the presentinvention. However a person skilled in the art can also prepare thesecompounds following to other synthetic sequences.

In the following schemes occurring abbreviations mean DCM(dichloromethane); DIPEA (N-ethyl-N,N-diisopropylamine); DMF(dimethylformamide); DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide); EtOAc (ethyl acetate);EtOH (ethanol); mCPBA (3-chlorobenzoperoxoic acid); MeOH (methanol);MeCN (acetonitrile); TFA (trifluoroacetic acid), PhNEt₂ (dimethyl phenylamine), Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl), Ph (phenyl), Ts (tosylate,p-toluenesulfonyl group), Mes (mesylate, methanesulfonyl group).

As depicted in scheme 1 in a first step 4-isopropyl-1H-pyrazol-5-aminewas reacted with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate to give a thioureaderivative that was cyclized to2-mercaptopyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazin-4-ol (II). The thiol (II) isthen methylated by standard procedure to yield intermediatemethylthioether (III).

Starting from (III) two further intermediate compounds can be derived asdepicted in scheme 2. Firstly, after said methylation of the mercaptogroup in (II) 4-chloro-2-(methylthio)pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazine (IV)was obtained by chlorination of (III) with phosphoryl trichloride in thepresence of N,N-diethylaniline. Secondly, by oxidation of (III) thesulfone derivative (XVII) can be synthesized. Both, intermediate (IV)and (XVII) can be used for synthesis of the compounds of the presentinvention of the general formula (I) via various synthetic routes.

The residue A¹ can be introduced by nuclephilic substitution reaction of(IV) with amines of the formula A¹NH₂, and DIPEA as a base yielding4-amino-2-(methylthio)pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazines (V) as shown inscheme 3, wherein A¹ represents the upper benzyl building block of thecompounds of the general formula (I)

wherein the R¹, R³ to R⁷ represent the residues as defined herein.

Compounds (V) were then oxidized with 3-chlorobenzoperoxoic acid to4-amino-2-(methylsulfonyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazines (VI) thatcould be substituted by reaction with compounds of the general formulaR²—H yielding the compounds of the present invention of the generalformula (I), wherein R² and A¹ represent residues as defined herein.

An alternative synthesis to the route outlined in scheme 3 is depictedin scheme 4 starting from intermediate (XVII). As one synthetic optionthe reaction of a nucleophile (R²—H) for introduction of the residue R²takes place before the incorporation of the amine A¹NH₂ (upper pathway).In addition as a second synthetic option it is possible to obtainchloride (XX) and subsequently substitute said chloride before thesulfone is replaced by R². The synthetic approach for the compounds ofthe general formula (I) according to scheme 4 has the advantage that theoxidation step for generating a sulfone from a thioether (here (III)converts to (XVII)) takes place before the introduction of the upperbuilding block A¹ by reaction with the amine A¹NH₂. Accordingly,moieties A¹ being sensitive to oxidative reaction conditions can also beintroduced, thereby broadening the scope of the compounds of the presentinvention significantly.

Conveniently, many ortho-substituted benzylamines A¹NH₂ as these areuseful starting materials for the synthesis of the compounds of thegeneral formula (I) are commercially available. Additional derivativescan be prepared by a person skilled in the art following known syntheticprocedures that are disclosed in patent or non-patent literature.

In principle, following any approach for the preparation of thecompounds with the general formula A¹-NH₂ and thereby for the compoundsof the present invention with the general formula (I) two aspects haveto be considered. Firstly, the generation of the benzylic amino group inA¹NH₂ and secondly, the introduction of the desired substitution patternas represented by R³-R⁷.

Commonly used syntheses for said aminomethylphenyl derivatives are shownin scheme 5. Suitable starting materials include aryl halogenides,sulfonates, nitriles, oximes, halogenomethans and related precursors.

Depending on the target molecule with its specific substitution pattern(as represented by R³-R⁷) a person skilled in the art of organicchemistry will plan the synthetic approach for each benzylamine (XIII)individually and decide at which point the aminomethyl group and theirrelated precursors will be synthesized. Also, scheme 5 shows merelyexemplary synthetic methods for the preparation of compounds (XIII)which is only a specific embodiment of the moiety A¹, wherein R¹ ishydrogen. However, the person skilled in the art will understand thatthe below synthetic routes are also suitable for the preparation ofamines A¹-NH₂ with any residue R¹ as defined herein.

According to the present invention ortho-substituent R³ in compounds ofthe general formula (I) is different from hydrogen. Starting from a widerange of commercially available materials many synthetic approaches canbe applied to introduce the moieties at the respective position to yieldcompounds as defined in claim 1 and are well known to a person skilledin the art of synthesis.

For example, R³ in formula (I) can derive from a nucleophile. In such acase it can be introduced for example via reaction with a2-fluorobenzonitrile derivative (XIV, scheme 6). Subsequently,ortho-substituted benzylamines (XVI) can be obtained by reduction of thecorresponding nitrile (XV). Examples for nucleophiles represented by NuHare alcohols, amines, thiols or 5-membered heteroaromates such aspyrazole or triazole derivatives. If necessary, compounds of formula(XV) or (XVI) can be further modified in various positions before orafter being used as building block (A¹-NH₂) according to schemes 3 and4.

Other examples for aromatic substitutions of aryl halides, triflates orboronates are copper mediated Ullman-type or palladium catalyzedBuchwald-Hartwig reactions with N-, O- or S-nucleophiles.

Further, there is also a huge number of reactions that enable a personskilled in the art of organic chemistry attaching R³ in compounds of thegeneral formula (I) via a carbon-carbon bond. These reactions includebut are not limited to catalyzed (e.g. by palladium, nickel, copper oriron species) cross-coupling reactions of an appropriate aryl halides orsulfonate with an alkyl, aryl or heteroaryl boron-, zinc-, magnesium-,tin- or silicon-reagent. Alternatively, for introduction of thesubstituent R³ it is possible to transform an aryl halide or sulfonate(e.g. triflate) into one of the above mentioned metal species that canbe used in a cross-coupling reaction with for example alkyl, aryl orheteroaryl halide R³—X. Further on scheme 3, synthetic options arepresented for the rather general introduction of the residue R² in thefollowing schemes 7-9:

For example intermediate (VI) can be reacted with different nucleophilesto give derivatives (VII)-(IX) that all bear different residues A² to A⁷at the afore-mentioned R² position in (I) in scheme 3.

In one embodiment in the synthesis of the compounds of the presentinvention amides of formula (XII) were synthesized via introduction of acyanide group, transforming the resulting nitriles into imidoesters (XI)which underwent a subsequent nucleophilic attack with primary orsecondary amines A³A⁴NH and hydrolysis to yield said related amides(scheme 7). In such embodiment the residue R² is represented by theamide group —CO-NA³A⁴. For example, for A³ being R¹⁵ and A⁴ being R⁸ thecase R² being Q-R⁸ with Q=—CO—NR¹⁵ is realized.

Results: 1. Measurement of Binding Affinities to CDKs

This protocol describes how the Lance Kinase Activity Assay wasperformed to determine IC₅₀ values of compounds of general formula (I)against CDK/Cyclin complexes. The principle behind this enzymatic assayis based upon the phosphorylation of the Ulight-Peptide Substrat. It isdetected by using a specific EU-labeled anti-phospho peptide antibody.The binding of the Eu labeled anti-phospho peptide antibody to thephosphorylated ULight® labeled peptide gives rise to a FRET-signal.

Binding of an inhibitor to the kinase prevents phosphorylation of theUlight-MBP Substrat, resulting in a loss of FRET.

Each compound solution was nowdiluted 1:20 in Enzymatic Buffer (HEPES: 50 mM, pH: 7.5; MgCl₂: 10 mM;EGTA: 1 mM; DTT: 2 mM; Tween-20: 0.01%), mixed thoroughly and spun down.

For every sample, 2 μl of the diluted compound were mixed with 6 μlCDK2/CycA/substrate working solution (8.33 nM CDK2/CycA; 83.33 nM ULightMBP substrate in enzymatic buffer) and 2 μl ATP working solution (15 μMATP in enzymatic buffer) in a well of a small volume 384 well plate(Corning Incorporated, Corning, N.Y., USA; order no. 3673). For negativecontrols, in each well 2 μl of DMSO working solution (5% DMSO diluted inenzymatic buffer) was mixed with 6 μl substrate working solution (83.33nM ULightMBP substrate in enzymatic buffer) and 2 μl ATP workingsolution. For positive controls, 2 μl of DMSO working solution weremixed with 6 μl CDK2/CycA/substrate working solution and 2 μl ATPworking solution. Positive and negative controls were calculated from atleast 8 different wells. The 384 well plates were mixed in a Teleshakerplate mixer (Beckman Coulter, Brea, Calif., USA) at 2000 rpm for 40 sec,and incubated for 1 h at room temperature before addition of 10 μl LANCEDetection Buffer (EDTA: 20 nM; Eu-Anti-P-MBP: 4 nM) per well. Plateswere mixed in a Teleshaker plate mixer (Beckman Coulter, Brea, Calif.,USA) at 2000 rpm for 40 sec, followed by incubation with DetectionBuffer for 1 h, and reading. The FRET signal was measured at 340 nmexcitation, 665 nm and 615 nm emission (for the ULight MBP substrate andLanthaScreen Eu-AB, respectively) with an Envision spectrophotometer(Perkin Elmer, Waltham, Mass., USA) with 90 μs delay and 20 μsintegration time. IC₅₀ values were determined from the sigmoidal doseresponse curves with the software Quattro Workflow (Quattro GmbH,Munich, Germany). In case of tight binding of the inhibitors toCDK2/CycA, final assay concentrations were adjusted to 0.25 nMEu-Anti-MBP AB, 2 nM CDK2/CycA and 30 μM ATP, and IC₅₀ values wereconverted according to the Cheng Prusoff equation to the IC₅₀ values atthe original ATP-concentration.

Comparative Examples

In order to show the surprising effects of the compounds of the presentinvention the Comparative Examples C-I and C-II, wherein according tothe compounds of the general formula (I) R³═H, have been tested in theenzymatic activity assays for CDK2, CDK7 and CDK9 as described above.

C-I and C-II have the following structural formulae:

The selectivity results of Comparable Examples C-I and C-II are directlycomparable to the compounds of the present invention as summarized inTable 5. While all compounds show potency against CDK-7, only thecompounds of the present invention do not significantly inhibit alsoCDK-2 and CDK-9. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention canselectively inhibit CDK-7. The degree of selectivity is demonstrated inTable 6 by the multiplicity of the CDK2 and CDK9 activity in terms ofthe CDK7 activity. For example, while C-I only shows a 9-fold CDK7activity for CDK2 and a 14-fold CDK7 activity for CDK9 indicating thatC-I rather inhibits all three CDK inhibitors, the compounds of thepresent invention selectively inhibit only CDK7 while the activities forCDK2 and CDK 9 are tremendously higher (up to over the 9000-foldactivity of the CDK7 activity).

Also, members of the CDK family have been validated as targets in cancerand inflammatory disease as well as in HIV-1 treatment. However, firstgeneration CDK-inhibitors (Flavopiridol, Roscovitine, SNS-032) dotypically inhibit more than one member of the CDK family. Such nonspecific-CDK inhibitors are meanwhile known for their toxicities andsmall therapeutic windows in clinical trials. Indeed, knockdown ofmultiple CDKs is lethal in a variety of model organisms, whereasknockdown of single CDKs is frequently tolerated; indicating thatinhibition of single CDKs is less toxic. Therefore, the main goal in thefield of CDK-inhibition is the optimization for selective small-moleculebased CDK-inhibitors.

As becomes apparent from Table 7 below first generation CDK-inhibitorsgenerally do not show satisfactory CDK7 inhibition in comparison to thecompounds of the present invention, nor do they show any significanteffect that CDK 2 or CDK 9 are not inhibited simultaneously. This couldat best be addressed for BS-181, however the comparative CDK 7inhibition is poor and the CDK 2 and CDK 9 inhibition is far below ahundred-fold activity of the CDK 7 activity. In case of SNS-032 andFlavopiridol the CDK 2 and CDK 9 activities are even lower than the CDK7 activity.
